Cryptocurrency investors are more likely to self-report 'Dark Tetrad' personality traits, study shows
The correlational analyses showed that crypto ownership is associated with belief in conspiracy theories, support of political extremism, identification with non-left-right political orientations (e.g., Christian nationalism), and the "Dark Tetrad" of personality traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism).

@nursefrombirth I also believe that #cryptocurrency investment requires an “always double down” mentality. No matter how poorly your return on investment becomes, or how much of your financial future you’ve jeopardized, you can never admit that you made a mistake.
Sounds a lot like one who is addicted to gambling. Gotta keep going mentality, I'll win eventually, maybe 🤔
